The expanded 5G footprint in the Philippines gives
Filipinos access to information faster and smoother than ever before.
With high-performance connectivity being a staple in
Filipino households, major telco player DITO Telecommunity seeks to fuel the
country’s digital shift with “real” 5G speeds.
To support this, DITO continues to pour massive
investments into its network build-up—delivering 5G speeds to subscribers
directly from its 5G infrastructure. This is an upgrade from its main rivals’
dependence on non-standalone 5G network to enable their 5G services.
“Seeing our 5G standalone network as breakthrough
connectivity, this is the real 5G we want to offer to Filipino subscribers
nationwide. Since it started deploying its infrastructure, DITO Telecommunity
has been investing in the latest technologies like 5G as part of our commitment
to boost connectivity and unlock new opportunities for customers in every
corner of the Philippines,” said DITO Telecommunity Chief Technology Officer
Rodolfo D. Santiago.
5G technology enables Filipino to maximize hi-speed
connectivity that:
1. Delivers
ultrafast internet connection
Internet speeds from 5G networks can effortlessly beat
4G, with speeds that could hit 10 to up to 100 times faster than the latter,
therefore allowing faster downloads and uploads.
2. Processes large
volumes of data
With higher speeds, the 5G network enables the transfer of huge volumes of data
smoothly and with fewer delays.
3. Connects,
reaches more devices
5G has greater capacity than 4G.
Whether at home
working or in crowded places outside, it is certain that there would be
multiple devices like phones, laptops, and tablets competing to connect to a
single router or home WiFi, which could be too heavy for a network. The
congestion would result in poor internet performance especially for non 5G
powered networks, causing frequent buffering during streaming or gaming and
extra slow browsing speeds.
But with the power of 5G, its technology can accommodate
mass numbers of devices while maintaining high-speed connections allowing
uninterrupted browsing, gaming or streaming.
4. Provides
lag-free experience
Everything would run faster with 5G’s promising speeds
and capacity. With its lightning-fast speed and low latency, 5G technology
enables a lag-free experience, allowing users to seamlessly stream high-quality
videos, engage in real-time gaming, and perform other data-intensive tasks
without any noticeable delays.
5. Enables new
technologies
5G plays a critical role in pursuing the development of
smart cities as it can support the connectivity requirements of other
technologies, including the Internet of Things (IoT).
Supporting this strong demand for high-speed internet,
DITO is not just empowering its mobile subscribers, but also Filipino
households with DITO Home. With up to 500 Mbps of speed, DITO Home can connect
up to 32 devices, enabling Filipinos to upgrade their digital lifestyles and
pushing them to do more.
“DITO is committed to delivering much faster and more
reliable 5G connection speeds, and we are excited to cover more areas as we
ramp up our expansion,” Santiago said.
DITO Home is now present in about 500 barangays across
Metro Manila and 50 barangays in Cebu, with thousands of Filipino families
experiencing DITO’s fastest internet yet.
As it rolls out more 5G sites, the company is on track to
reach more Filipino homes. As of end-2022, the company was able to build nearly
6,000 towers across the country and covered more than 700 areas.
